Pandora Park and sports court upgrade

The Vancouver Park Board wants to replace one or more tennis courts in Pandora Park with more green space and a new sports court for basketball.

We have secured capital funding for the sports court upgrades and associated park improvements. A landscape architecture firm will work with the community to develop a preferred concept plan.

We expect construction to begin in 2018.

Pandora Park is located at 2325 Franklin Street (at Garden Drive) in Grandview-Woodland.
